Edge Grove School

[3] The boys and girls are organised into five houses: Hedgerows, Sarnesfield, Churchill, Stratton and Gills.

This house was then sold by his sons to Mr Thomas Hake some time in the late 1780s.

The American financier and banker John Pierpont Morgan bought the property in 1912 and rented it to Mr Richard Bennett.

When it came to settling his estate, Morgan arranged for the council to take the freehold, specifying it should be used as an independent school.

The school has a large sports hall, all-weather tennis/netball courts, an AstroTurf pitch, 9 acres of playing fields, indoor & outdoor cricket nets and a heated[citation needed] outdoor swimming pool.
